The Lusty Month of May Lyrics by Phillipa Soo, Camelot on Broadway Company

Camelot (The 2023 Broadway Cast Recording)

2023

[GUENEVERE & COMPANY (ALL)]
Tra la, it's May
The lusty month of May
That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray
Tra la, it's here
That shocking time of year
When tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear
It's May, it's May
That gorgeous holiday
When every maiden prays that her lad will be a cad
It's mad, it's gay
A libelous display
Those dreary vows that everyone takes
Everyone breaks, everyone makes divine mistakes
The lusty month of May
Whence this fragrancе wafting through the air?
What sweet feelings does its scent transmutе?
Whence this perfume floating everywhere?
Don't you know it's that dear forbidden fruit
(Tra la la la) Tra la la la la, that dear forbidden fruit
Tra la la la la (Tra la la la la)
Tra la la la la (Tra la la la la)
Tra la (Tra la)
Tra la (Tra la)
Tra la la la la la la la la la (La la la la la la la la la)
It's May
The lusty month of May
That darling month when everyone throws self control away (Tra la la)
It's time to do a wretched thing or two
And try to make each precious day one you'll always rue
It's May (Tra la), it's May (Tra la)
The month of yes you may
The time for every frivolous whim, proper or im
It's wild (Tra la), it's gay (Tra la)
A blot in every way (Tra la la)
The birds and bees with all of their vast amorous past
Gaze at the human race aghast
The lusty month of May
Tra la, it's May
The lusty month of May
That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray
Tra la, it's here
That shocking time of year
When tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear
It's May, it's May
The month of great dismay
When all the world is brimming with fun, wholesome or un
It's mad, it's gay
A libelous display
Those dreary vows that everyone takes
Everyone breaks, everyone makes divine mistakes
The lusty month of May
